Here is a thread I was just reading that may help: http://www.pro-touring.com/forum/showthread.php?t=37081

Probably good insurance would be to upgrade the rod bolts and maybe install a ported or high volume oil pump.

What are your power goals and budget?

yea I read that the other night. I'm going to look into a bigger pump. but for the rods I think they over powering the motor. Very rarley have I heard of one of these motors blowing up. This car will be lucky to see the track once of twice a year.

Well if it's any consideration I've got stock rod bolts myself. I never knew to change them before I installed my motor. I've heard to just be careful reving past 6500 rpm.
